Love on The Ledge: 4 Couples to Have Private Ceremony Sunday at 1,353 Feet Above Chicago
A Unique Valentine’s Day Experience
For four couples, this year’s Super Bowl Sunday will mean a whole lot more than a football game and all the festivities that come with it. Two couples have been selected to be married and two couples have been selected to renew their vows on Sunday at 1,353 feet above the city in Skydeck Chicago’s annual Love on The Ledge event.
A Popular Social Media Contest
The event has become a popular social media contest around Valentine’s Day, in which couples receive the chance to tie the knot or renew their vows in a private ceremony on The Ledge, the observation deck on the 103rd floor of the Willis Tower that gives brave viewers a sweeping view of the Chicago skyline.
The Ledge: A Unique Backdrop
The Ledge is composed of five glass-floor balconies, each of three layers of half-inch thick glass, extending out over four feet from Willis Tower. For the Love on The Ledge contest, couples were invited to share their love story and explain why they wanted to participate in the experience, with four couples chosen to receive a private wedding ceremony or vow renewal on Sunday.
A Special Experience
“Each year, Love on The Ledge continues to evolve, and what makes it truly special is seeing how each couple brings their own unique story to this iconic backdrop,” Randy Stancik, general manager of Skydeck Chicago, said in a news release. “This isn’t just about celebrating love in a dramatic setting, but about offering couples a moment to reflect on their journey together, surrounded by the beauty of the city that inspires so many of us.
“We’re honored to create a space where those memories can be made and cherished for years to come.”
A Private Ceremony
Each couple gets a private, officiated 15-minute ceremony, complemented by romantic florals and decorations. The couples can invite family and friends, and they also get a professional photographer and a champagne toast following the ceremony. Additionally, they were given an overnight stay the night before the ceremony at the Canopy by Hilton Chicago Central Loop, right across the street from the Willis Tower.

According to Skydeck Chicago, over 1,300 proposals, weddings and vow renewals, plus thousands of romantic dates, have taken place on the 103rd floor of the Willis Tower.
